--Today is Greg’s last full day in Florence, which came all too fast. The two of us went up to Fiesole, which is a town on a hill that has a gorgeous view of Florence and also of the Tuscan country side (I may or may not have blogged about Fiesole several times by now.. sorry, sorry, sorry!) In our adventures of walking around the exterior roads of Fiesole to get a 360 degree view, we made a friend from California, Ashley.

During this Fiesole trip, we decided to explore within the monastery. It was really neat and slightly eerie to see into the old, unused rooms of the nuns. Some doors of these tiny rooms were open, and others were closed, but you could still peek in through the keyhole. As always, it was grand sitting up on that wall, feet hanging over the edge, as I look at the city I have come to study in, live in, and love.

The rest of the day consisted of last minute shopping, food and food, and lots of packing and rearranging. And, of course, I couldn’t let him leave without going on a long walk along my river. It is a tiny, beautiful river that you can walk along beneath the level of the sidewalk. Gosh, I love that river.
